$50 & Under Gift Guide: For the Chef

Happy 12th Day of Christmas!!! Today is the last day of my 12 Days of Christmas promotion, so if you’ve ever been interested in booking my services, today is the day! This is also a great day to claim one (or more) of the deals to give as a Christmas gift to a friend or family member! Check out the deals and claim them today!

Today’s gift guide is for the person in your life who’s always in the kitchen—the one who loves to cook and bake! I had so much fun picking out items for this gift guide, as we recently did a mini (but drastic) kitchen remodel this past weekend! (A post about that will be coming soon!) I envisioned all of these beautiful and functional kitchen tools gracing the shelves and drawers of my kitchen and really channelled the colors and style of our space. So hopefully your chef friends and family will love these tools as much as I do!

And guys, guess what?! The photos are now clickable! So if you see what you like, you can go directly from the photo, or you can read my stunning commentary on each item in the “Shop the Guide” list below! 😉

This post contains affiliate links, which means that when you click on one of the product links, I receive a little something in return, and you receive super cute gift ideas. It’s a win-win!

Anthropologie Delphina Stacked Measuring Cups • Anthropologie
These measuring cups are beautiful and decorative, and would make the perfect addition to many different styles of kitchens!
Martha Stewart Collection Over-The-Sink Cutting Board with Colander
Function at it’s finest! Strain, chop, and discard all in one spot!
Cambridge Hammered Copper Mixing Bowl • Cambridge Silversmiths
This copper mixing bowl transitions perfectly to a serving bowl when dinnertime comes. I’ll take 3, please!
Cooks 3-qt. Enameled Cast Iron Dutch Oven • JCPenney
We LOVE our cast iron dutch oven. It is one of the most clutch kitchen tools we have, and we use it often.
Martha Stewart Collection Plastic Chopper
Another one of those uber functional tools—and a must for chopping onions, in my opinion!

A good set of spatulas should never be underestimated.

We might love our garlic press even more than our dutch oven! Chopping garlic is tedious and often needs to be done in a pinch… which is where this baby comes in!

These measuring spoons go perfect with the mixing bowl… bake with both and you’ll feel like a queen!
